Fishing your fortune shrine details👇
Head to:
📍 Hikawa Shrine in Kawagoe
⛩️ HIKAWA SHRINE ⛩️
This is a 1500-year-old matchmaking shrine famous for granting positive relationships, love searches, matchmaking, and marriage blessings.
If you are visiting in the summer, the biggest highlight of the Kawagoe Hikawa Shrine is the summer exhibition of the “corridor of marriage wind chimes.”
🐟 FISH YOUR FORTUNE 🐟
The most popular fortunes are the “ichinen antai mikuji” (one year of safety fortune) and the “ai tai mikuji” (love fortune) for 300 yen each.
Red fish symbolize safety and protection, while pink fish symbolize luck in love. There are also seasonal colors like blue, purple, and green.
🚉 ACCESS 🚉
Kawagoe Hikawa Shrine is easily accessible by train. Tobu Railway operates an express train from Ikebukuro Station to Kawagoe Station, all under 30 minutes.
From Kawagoe Station to the shrine, it’s walkable while soaking in the beautiful traditional architecture and shops of Kawagoe, or you can take a local bus.
There’s also the Kawagoe one-day pass to consider!

10 spots to visit in Kawagoe this spring! 🇯🇵 Kawagoe is only half an hour from Ikebukuro… so save this reel and share if you love it!
🔔 Toki-no-kane is the symbol of Kawagoe, and even Saitama (you will see it in many tourist promo for Saitama prefecture).
🏮Koedo old town is where you can transport yourself back to Japan’s Edo period, with lots of street food and shops to check out!
🎏 Koinobori along the Taisho Roman Yume dori is a sight to be seen. These colourful carps are only up during spring, usually around end of March until mid-May.
♨️ Footbath cafe is a spot where you can rest your feet and enjoy some desserts or drinks. It is tucked behind Kaya, which is one of my favourite stores to shop in.
💐 Naka-in is where you can find full bloom mimosa side by side a weeping sakura tree. They also have live piano performances in spring…
🍡 Kita-in is a large temple area with lots of sakura trees. You’ll find many people doing hanami picnic here, with some festival food available!
🐦⬛ Kawagoe Kumano Shrine is where you can find pretty sakura decorations during spring.
🪷 Renkeiji Temple is so beautiful in spring with Sakura trees blooming at the temple ground.
⛩️ Kawagoe Hikari Shrine is an important shrine in Kawagoe where you can find an ema tunnel. Follow the path to get you to the last spot…
🌸 Shingashi River is the most popular spot in Kawagoe during cherry blossom season because you find hundreds of sakura trees lined up by the river. It is breathtaking and a lot quieter than many Tokyo spots.
💖 If you do visit, please tag me in your stories and posts! And if there’s any other spot to add, comment below…
Escape to Kawagoe, just an hour from Tokyo! Step back in time as you stroll through the streets of “”Little Edo”” and savor the charm of its local cuisine.🍡🍠

Kawagoe is located about 30 - 50 minutes by train from central Tokyo and is suitable as a day trip destination!
Its main street, lined with Kurazukuri (clay-walled warehouse-styled) buildings, retains an ambience reminiscent of an old town from the Edo Period (1603-1867) and allows us to imagine the streets from past centuries. Thereby, Kawagoe became known as "Little Edo (Koedo)".
📍 Kawagoe, Saitama🇯🇵

Exploring the charming Old Town of Kawagoe, Japan — a beautiful glimpse into the country’s rich heritage, just over an hour’s train ride from Tokyo. 🏘️🚃🏙️ Wandering through its historic streets lined with traditional and distinctive architecture, I couldn’t help but be captivated by the town’s timeless atmosphere and its iconic wooden bell tower standing tall above it all. 🔔
